Francisco S I´ve seen boxing movies with less punches thrown. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 04/19/25 Full Review Cecilia S Honestly this movie deserves more praise and attention! Of all the biopics i have seen in my life, this one stands out as one of the best and most memorable! I am a huge fan of Tina Turner, but I don't think you have to be to enjoy this movie! The movie is so much more than the music! IIs a great drama with some amazing performances and some dark dramatic scenes that are more disturbing than you may think! Angela Basset and Laurence fishburne were amazing! They really became the characters they were playing to the point where you almost forget you are watching actors and not the real Ike and Tina! The music were great and since I never got to experience Tina this movie is the closest i can get and it does a great job at it! Tina had a huge influence on music, me and all of us! Incredible artist that will never be forgotten! May she rest in peace! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/14/25 Full Review Rosana B Em pensar que a infância dela conseguiu ser mais sofrida, e não foi inserida no filme, como as mulheres suportam essa abusividade toda (tão real e atual), relacionamentos tóxicos, acobertados pelos amigos, amigas, família, mãe, triste, bom foi ter vivido tempo suficiente para curtir toda sua fama longe daquele troglodita... Belíssimo, uma homenagem mais que necessária, uma artista incrível, uma história que encoraja outras mulheres… Um filme emblemático, um grito de socorro e musical. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/28/24 Full Review Em B This is possibly one of the greatest biopics I have ever seen. Not only is it well written and directed, but Angela Bassett as an actress pulls the audience in from the jump. I think Angela Bassett did a better job of playing Tina Turner than Tina Turner herself and that's what you call a great actor. One of the biggest things Tina was renowned for was her stage presence and showmanship and Angela gave this in buckets. Lawrence Fishburne who played Ike Turner was just as good as well as Vanessa Bell Calloway. Really well written and something I can easily watch again and again (the first time I watched this was back in 1993) and never be bored. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/15/24 Full Review Test T I watched this on DVD recently. It's a high quality biopic which pulls few punches telling Tina Turner's life story. A big plus is the musical score which features many of Tina's greatest hits. It's produced in a way that captures your attention right from the off, and it's not long before you'll feel like you are living alongside Tina & Ike inside their world. Sadly, the story is not a pretty one, with domestic violence featuring prominently throughout, although it's also uplifting when Tina breaks free from Ike and goes on to suceed as an independent artist. Considering it was released in 1993, when VHS tape was the dominant media, the film looks very good by modern standards and has aged surprisingly well. Highly recommended. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/15/24 Full Review Sam B Tina Turner, one of my all time favorite performers, that energy, that talent, utter legend! Very hard movie to watch at times, but shows light will always overcome darkness. Simply the best, Tina's light will shine forever!
